Two rooms, two sets of hours
The listings that say Casino Wien opens at 11am are describing a building rather than a room. The operator publishes the floors separately, and the difference is six hours:
| Floor | What is there | Hours |
|---|---|---|
| Casino Classic | Roulette, blackjack, baccarat | Daily 15:00 to 05:00 |
| Jackpot Casino | Slot machines | Daily 09:00 to 05:00 |
If you have arrived in the city on a morning train and want a table rather than a machine, there is nothing to do until three. Both floors close on 24 December.
What the tables cost
Casinos Austria deals roulette, blackjack and baccarat here. The prices are the same as they are anywhere, which is the point of computing them:
- Roulette: a single-zero wheel costs 2.70% on every bet. Continental Europe deals single zero as standard, which makes this the cheaper side of the Atlantic for the same game.
- Blackjack: read the payout line before sitting. 3:2 against 6:5 is worth 1.35 percentage points, more than every other rule difference combined.
- Baccarat: the banker bet costs 1.06%, the player bet 1.24% and the tie 14.36%.
Decline insurance if it is offered: on a six-deck shoe it costs 6.80%, about thirteen times the game you are already playing.
Practical notes
- Smart casual is the published dress code across Casinos Austria: what you would wear going out, and not tracksuit bottoms or flip-flops.
- Bring the original document. The operator asks for an original valid official photo ID at reception, not a photograph of one.
- The Casinos Austria Poker Tour stages Vienna stops, so the poker on offer varies with the calendar rather than running to a fixed daily schedule. Confirm before planning an evening around it.
- Winnings are not taxed in the hands of a recreational player; the licensed operator carries the duty. See the country page for the wider position and the other eleven rooms.
Not the other Baden
Casinos Austria also runs a room at Baden bei Wien, half an hour south of the capital. It is a different place from Baden in Switzerland, which is near Zurich, holds a Swiss Type A concession and is currently trading out of a temporary building while its Kursaal is rebuilt. Two spa towns, two casinos, two countries, one name.
